Hey all. Im working towards getting my stuff together for the escalation league in CHCH next year. I've ordered my books and am now waiting for them to arrive.

I have a question around model/base size. Im mucking around with a heavy conversion/scratchbuild idea for an ork mek. Not wainting to run a foul of the rules or upsetting other gamers is it ok if something is radically different looking from the GW model as long as it's on the right base size and is roughly the right size and how much model 'over hang' is ok?

Cheers

Most people are pretty good with it as long as it kind of looks like it could do what the rules state it can. e.g. replacing a Warboss with a Grot holding a big gun is a stretch, but replacing a Warboss with a Grot holding a big gun and standing on the shoulders of a "CyGrot" with bionic limbs would be fine.
